Formless has been out for a week. It feels good. This is the best day to pick up a copy of this record or really any record you want ‘cause it’s Bandcamp Friday where they send almost 100% of profits to artists. Thank you so much for your support and for all the messages! It means a lot. I’m really proud of this record and honoured to have worked with all the artists who were a part of it.
